  New System Process

   

  Description:

  USMC is transitioning their equipment inventory held for issue as well as the equipment in possession of the operating forces to use DPAS for the management of. USMC utilizes the Total Force Structure Management System "TFSMS" to manage their allowance.  DPAS does not currently support an interface with TFSMS.  It is a must have to support readiness reporting.

   

  Recommended:

  1. Develop the capability to inbound files that contain TFSMS Allowance data via DAAS GEX.

  2. Import the TFSMS data and present it the USMC user community with the data along with the on-hand quantities to enable the operating forces and mgmt to know their state of readiness based upon equipment required to on hand.  

  3. This SCR likely applies to the Materiel Mgmt., Warehouse Mgmt. and Property Accountability, and Requisition service applications of DPAS

   

  Mission Critical:
  The implementation of this SCR is in support of USMC's DPAS implementation of their operating forces.

   

  Benefits:

  Enable USMC to determine their state of readiness as well as equipment overages / underages.
  The number of daily updates to the allowances within TFSMS precludes a manual data reconciliation of change and manual input of the changes to DPAS.
